From horse riding opportunities to international rugby matches and hideaways to perfect picnic sites. With the weird and wonderful in between. Here's how to find a different side to Wales on your walking adventures

In addition to the opportunities for escapism while exploring the coast path itself, you can find so many other ways to escape from the real world while you make your way round the Coast Path, that there’s a danger you may never get back to it!

Apart from being a rugby nation, Wales now features Premier League football. It boasts a number of championship-class golf courses, has world-class sports arenas, hosts major international motor sport events, the Iron Man Wales triathlon, marathons, and the spectacular coastline has year-round water sports activities like yachting, powerboat and longboat racing.

Whether your picnic of choice features traditional British classics or explores continental delights, there is no arguing that a great picnic site can make your meal rival any Michelin starred experience.
